It is a very common problem. Most windows don't seal very well. The simplest way is to go to Canadian Tire or Home Depot, and buy a "weather (or window) stripping" for each window. It is a plastic to cover your window to help the sealing.
In Home Depot, you can find the plastic right in front of the cashier because it is this season's hottest sale. Ask the salesperson how to use it if you don't know. The price for my window is about 2-3 dollars each.
Neeed to determine the casue of the condensation. During the Winter, air is tight inside the house, and if you boiling something (water or making soup) in the kitchen; chances are the steam will attach to the windows and causing condensation. The other possiblility is leaks in the windows. Cold air enters the house through window gaps and meets with hot air inside the house and cause condensation.
